General description

cis-Zeatin is an isoprenoid cytokinin (CK)(2) present in plants and some bacteria.

Application

cis-Zeatin has been used as a cytokinin standard in the ultra-violet (UV) spectrum and gas chromatogram measurements to characterize N-glucoside of cis-Zeatin from potato tuber sprouts. It has also been used as a cytokinin to treat legume M. atropurpureum to test its effect on pseudonodules formation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

cis-Zeatin displays a low affinity to cytokinin receptors (CK) and lower activity in the classical CK bioassays compared to the trans isomer. cis-Zeatin (cZ) and its riboside (cZR) regulate plant development and stress. cZ also plays a key role in the growth and development of rice. It may also have a role in mediating plant-pathogen interactions and plant immunity.

cis-Zeatin (cZ) is generally regarded as a cytokinin with little or no activity, compared with the highly active trans-zeatin (tZ). Although recent studies suggested possible roles for cZ, its physiological significance remains unclear. In our studies with rice (Oryza sativa)
